Summary

A lot has happened to the climate over the last decade, and the authors tackle the daunting statistics with their trademark humor. They realize it's better to laugh than cry when confronting mind-blowing facts about our changing world. Readers will become familiar with critical concepts, but they'll also smile as they learn about climate science, projections, and policy
